Amazon MGM Studios announced during its Upfronts presentation on Monday that its holiday comedy Oh. What. Fun., teaming The Idea of You filmmaker Michael Showalter with star Michelle Pfeiffer, is set to begin streaming on Prime Video on December 3rd. They also unveiled a sneak peak, which you can view above.
An adaptation of the short story by Chandler Baker that was originally published by Amazon Original Stories, the film follows Claire Clauster (Pfeiffer), who is the glue that holds her chaotic, lovable family together every holiday season. From perfectly frosted cookies to meticulously wrapped gifts, no one decks the halls quite like Claire. But this year, as her grown kids and distracted husband get swept up in their own seasonal dramas, they make one crucial mistake: they forget their mom. By the time they realize she’s missing, Claire’s already set off on a festive adventure of her own — one that doesn’t involve cooking, cleaning, or coordinating anyone else’s chaos. As her family scrambles to find her and salvage their Christmas, Claire rediscovers what the holidays mean when you’re finally free to put yourself first.
Written by Showalter and Baker, the film also stars Felicity Jones, Chloë Grace Moretz, Denis Leary, Dominic Sessa, Danielle Brooks, Devery Jacobs, Havana Rose Liu, Maude Apatow, Jason Schwartzman, Eva Longoria and Joan Chen.
Producers on the project includde Showalter and Jordana Mollick via Semi-Formal Productions (The Eyes of Tammy Faye, The Dropout), as well as Tribeca Productions’ Berry Welsh & Jane Rosenthal (The Irishman), and Kate Churchill (Amazon’s Holland). Baker served as executive producer.
